Cocktails: The Oscars edition

Calling all movie junkies! The 84th Annual Academy Awards is THE premier show to catch this “Oscar Sunday”. This awards show is notorious for capturing the glitz and the glam from the most popular movie celebs. Below are a few Oscar-worthy cocktails to sip on while watching the big show. The cool thing here is that these drinks are named after a few of this year’s nominated movies. Cheers!

Pour all ingredients, except beer, into mixing tin. Add ice and shake. Strain into a tall glass and top with beer. Garnish with a grapefruit peel expressed over the glass. *Cut 2 Tbsp. honey with 1 Tbsp. hot water and stir or shake until consistent.

The three recipes above were created by NYC mixologists Richard Boccato of Painkiller and Marshall Altier of JBird and made with Denizen Rum.

Which drinks might you try out this Sunday?
